Abstract
A centrifuge is known which has a rotor bearing a plurality of swinging buckets mounted each on two pivots and sector-shaped inserts secured in place on the axis of the rotor shaft. The inserts have substantially vertical, radially disposed supporting walls which receive the thrust of the pivots and their outer part serves as a centrifugal force-supporting surface in the operating state. Two pivots are associated with each sector-shaped insert. In order to construct a centrifuge with swinging buckets such that it will be distinguished by its simple construction and will not require adjustment of the individual components with respect to one another, a pivot is disposed on each of the two supporting walls of the insert with their free ends confronting one another.
